Need to flash p6200l for a newbie - Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus

Hello, i have with me galaxy tab plus p6200L and need to flash it and i have Odin3-v1.85 with me...but i cant find firmware for p6200L anywhere...just have a few questions:
1) Can i flash P6200 firmware on P6200L?
2) I have read somewhere that flashing a tab with locked bootloader can brick my tab...is it true?
3) Also do i need to select pit file and tick re-partition?
Thanks.

I flashed a p6200l with a p6200 firmware and had no problem. Just make sure you do a factory reset after otherwise touchwiz will have missing Widgets and apps.

Kies won't work unless you are on stock firmware. You'll need to go back to stock firmware/kernel and then unroot.
Just unrooting won't since the issue. You'd have to refer to the stock firmware as well as kernel as told earlier.
you'd have a custom cf kernel with cwm, goto stock by flashing xxkpe starting from pit.
Press thanks if helped

Go for your region specific firmware. Then unroot. I think there are unroot instructions on cfroot thread.

Install your region csc if you are using multi csc
To check your csc type following code
*#272*[yourIMEI]#
Take backup before typing this code
This will erase all your data

How to use mobile odin?

Hi
I have rooted my note 10.1 n8000, but want to get ota again. Do i just have to flash stock recovery in mobile odin under the section recovery and then it will get ota and still be rooted?

The simplest way is probably to flash the stock rom again. Then by default with no other options checked you will be stock. Details of Mobile Odin here
But you will loose root....
If you download the Stock rom from sammobile then you can flash it through mobile ODIN. You need to download file (zip file), unzip it and put the .md5 file on your sd card or internal storage. Run Mobile ODIN, if you haven't run it before it will need to download some files, then pick OTA/update and select where you put it. Select the file, make sure everoot options are ticked and wipe cache and dalvik are ticked too... Click on flash firmware and it will ask if you want to check the md5 checksum, do this as it checks if the file isn't complete or is corrupted, it won't flash. If all is ok it will ask again giving the usual warnings. If you aren't scared off by the warnings it will flash the firmware. I tend to have a greater than 50% charge when doing this and usually have it plugged into power.
After flash completes and it loads into Android you will still have root but will be on stock recovery. You will need to either use PC ODIN or mobile ODIN to restore this...

If someone hasn't taken any updates prior to the new one, once it releases for their device, do they need to apply each update individually prior to the newest one?
Can anyone confirm that flash is still usable in JB?
Thanks for your help!

Im not really an expert but i'll try..
Can you enter odin mode? If yes, then you can flash your stock HC rom.. but guessing from your problem.. do you know how to use odin? If dont, try to do some research.. so heres my tip..
1. Find your stock HC firmware at www.samfirmware.com
2. Flash the firmware via odin..
3. (From experience) it will boot loop in the samsung animation
4. Dont worry.. enter recovery and do both wipes
5. Your boot will now proceed..
BEFORE I FORGET.. WIPING IS SAFE ON STOCK HC ROM.. DO NOT WIPE FROM STOCK ICS ROM.. I REPEAT DO NOT WIPE FROM STOCK ICS ROM
PEOPLE OUT THERE.. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG..
IM JUST HELPING OUR FRIEND HERE..

[Q] after update to JB, not able to downgrade

Since upgrading to JB 4.1.2, I am not able to downgrade to ICS. After the flashing ICS via odin or for that matter mobile odin, is complete, it goes into a boot loop. Only way way out was again flash Jelly bean, it worked. Is there any firmware with full components like pda separate file, CSC separate file and phone separate file? I have heard that we need to flash these separate files via odin to downgrade. can anybody give a download link for the same?
Do you have a CWM back-up from a previous ROM?

you must go to stock ricovery ( with power + volum up ) and then wipe data
( your data are remove ( factory riset )
sorry for my bad ENGLISH
But I have heard that if one wipes factory reset through stock recovery, I am afraid one is liable to get bricked devices.

I would research the factory reset option. It shouldn't brick your device.

NO! Wipe data in STOCK recovery brick your device, but if you wipe in CWM you are safe.
For downgrade use this guide:

Just to make it clear.. wiping from stock is Safe IF you are in HC or JB ( someone said its safe ) but a big NO in ICS because it causes the tab to be bricked.. wiping from CWM on all roms is SAFE.. pls.. get your facts right..

If you want to downgrade from official JB to official ICS, you have to have .pit file
You can search pit file for P6200 in XDA and using odin to flash official ICS with option re-partition checked
First time, when my friend downgrade without .pit file, tab got stuck at SS logo even wipe everything fully. With .pit file, it succeeded

Is it necessary to have three different files ie pda, phone and csc when using pit file eith repartition checked?

No, just ICS Stock Rom with .pit file
P6200 pit file in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886) works fine
You can downgrade to HC, do wipes and flash ICS.
i usually do encounter this on my 7.7 when i flash hc from ics...what i did was wipe the device using cwm after flashing the older firmware to fix the bootloop...
my friend have tab 7 plus and i'm planning to flash jb on it...is the stock JB recovery free from the brickbug?

I used the pit file and the ics stock and flashed using odin, the flashing went off smoothly with odin saying success. But after booting mine stuck at the samsung animation for eternity. Again I had no other alternative than flash jb back again.

Did you check option re-partition in Odin?
By the way, stuck at SS logo is quite often happened if you did not wipe. You should try to perform full wipe.
There is an issue related to wipe using ICS stock recovery, you should use Odin to flash CWM recovery (without .pit file) and use CWM recovery to wipe.

when you are stuck in bootloop flash cwm recovery and do a full wipe..that will fix it...avoid full reset using stock recovery to prevent brickbug

Thanks for the answer but u didn't read what I wrote. I've downloaded one from sammobile but it contains only PDA file and after installation it gets stuck in SAMSUNG logo and doesn't turn on. Someone told me that I need a ROM with all PIT,PDA,CSC files to downgrade. And thats what Im asking for - for a rom with all the three files.

You're on 4.2.2 and want to revert to 4.1.2.When you flash the stock 4.1.2,go to stock recovery and make a factory reset and then wipe cache partition.
